Email service Gmail has receovered after suffering widespread issues this morning after a possible outage affectied both its online and mobile apps.
According to data from real-time outage monitoring service DownDetector, the incident began at roughly 0300 ET/08:00 GMT, with thousands of users having registered problems across Europe, Asia and the US.
Along with Gmail, Google Chat, Google Meet, Google Groups and Google Calendar are also affected, with each program showing an alert on the official Google Workspace dashboard.
Gmail issues
"We are currently investigating an issue affecting user access to multiple services affecting users in Europe," Google noted.
"We're investigating reports of an issue with Gmail. We will provide more information shortly. The affected users are uable to access Gmail," it added on the Gmail-specific page.
"We are investigating an issue which is affecting some users in Europe affecting their ability to access some services."
The issues, which seemed to affect logging in to an online account, hit users in the UK, Europe and the US.
Some users took to Twitter to complain they can't access Gmail services at all, and internal evidence from the TechRadar Pro team saw us unable to log into our accounts, with the usual 2FA security authenticiation methods running very slowly.
Sending 2FA alerts to a mobile device took much longer than usual, and in some cases resulted in an error, leaving us unable to log in as workers across the country log in for their working day.
